The Open Perpetuum Project, a community run server and development initiative, has stepped up to host and develop features for their server for all players to enjoy. They have continued to improve, add, and grow the game in every aspect.

The Open Perpetuum Project has already launched their server with a new island layout, rebalanced Robot factions and numerous changes they were preparing since the last days before the official shutdown. Just this last month they released Robot Paint! They are committed to deliver new and exciting content to the server for everyone to enjoy.

Community servers

Perpetuum's official development is now discontinued, and the official server has been shut down on January 25th, 2018.

However, we have developed a standalone server app that anyone can use to set up a private Perpetuum server where others can join and play together. We have also released the source code for the server which helps the Perpetuum community in further development and bug fixing.

For more information on the standalone server, see our announcements here and here and take a look at the discussion forums for more details on the community projects.

Main Features

No Monthly Fees – Buy once, play forever.

Sci-Fi Setting – Perpetuum is set in a unique sci-fi environment inhabited by robots and alien technology.

Player-Built Infrastructure – Players are able to raise their own settlements in the unoccupied areas of the Perpetuum world, where they are able to enforce their own rules as they see fit.

Terraforming – Players are able to form the world of Nia as they see fit to aid their goals. The terrain can be raised or lowered in certain areas and thus settlements can be protected by intricate strongholds, and temporary shelters can be created in the heat of battle to protect vulnerable allies. It's all up to the player's imagination.

Character Progression – Time-based character progression requires no grind and provides a level playing field for casual and hardcore players alike.

Large Scale PvP – Players are able to clash in huge battles for control of territory and resources. Formable terrain, destructible scenery and player built infrastructure all play key roles in the course of war.

High Customizability – Players of Perpetuum have a large number of ways to customize their robots for the various goals they strive towards.

Natural Processes – The Perpetuum game world always changes through natural processes. Destroyed plants grow back and spread, and outmined resources replenish over time.
